The PDF editor SDK for React Native

A React Native PDF editor: a TypeScript package over the native iOS and Android editors. Your users edit the text already in the PDF, fill and build forms, mark up and sign — in your React Native app.

import { PdfEditor } from '@pdfsdk/react-native-pdf-editor';

await PdfEditor.setLicenseKey('PE1.eyJ2Ijox…');

const edited = await PdfEditor.open({ path: filePath });
if (edited) await upload(edited);

Everything your users need, in your React Native app.

Change the text already in the PDF, in any script — its font, size and colour — then move, rotate or restack it.

React Native PDF editor in 15 seconds0:15

Built for React Native.

  • Native on both platforms

    The package opens the native iOS and Android editors — no web view.

  • TypeScript API

    Open a file, get the edited file back. Choose the mode and tool to open in.

  • Swift Package Manager on iOS

    The iOS side builds with Swift Package Manager. No CocoaPods.

  • Make it yours

    Choose modes and tools, hide menu items, rename them, set colours, selection and handle shape.

  • Edit from code

    Work with the document when it is ready — add text and more — from TypeScript.

Full React Native guide

Add the React Native PDF editor in four steps.

  1. 1

    Add the package

    @pdfsdk/react-native-pdf-editor comes with your license as a tarball. Install it with npm.

  2. 2

    Set up iOS

    PDF-SDK ships as a Swift package, so convert the app from CocoaPods once. The package includes two small tools for this.

  3. 3

    Set up Android

    Autolinking picks the module up. Add the Maven repository that comes with your license and set the minimum SDK to 26.

  4. 4

    Set the key and open

    Set the key once, before the first editor. Open a PDF on disk or bundled with the app, and get the path of the edited file back.
